Hey guys I am new to the forum. I have an 82 KZ750 CSR M1 Twin. The problem I have is that the neutral light and the oil light do not work. My brother, who gave me the bike, said he tried having it fixed at a shop but it was too much to do. I’d like to try it myself. First off, the bulbs are ok. I was curious to how these lights work. Is it the same with each bike when the shift drum pin completes the circuit? I am getting a Clymer manual for it here soon.
Which wires do I look for to make sure it works? I’d really like the oil light to work in case there is a problem. Is this the little unit that sits on top of the engine right in the middle? Does this work kind of opposite the neutral that when the pressure drops, it completes the circuit and lights up?
The wiring on the bike is pretty bad and I have considered rewiring it, but I am hesitant because I don’t want to jump in and end up with a mess. Is this real hard to do or are there kits out there I should look for? Does the Clymer manual have wiring diagrams? I looked in the filebase but it did not have anything for my bike. Should I look for another book like a dealer manual specific for my bike? I know this is a lot, but I like my bike and small stuff like this bugs me! Any help would be greatly appreciative!
Thanks!
